A 37-year-old man, Phillip Luster, was fatally shot in Tulsa, Oklahoma on October 12, 2020. In a harrowing turn of events, the discovery of Luster's death was made after his three-year-old child reported the shooting.
The investigation into the death of the male victim led to the identification of a suspect. In September 2021, a federal grand jury indicted 21-year-old Antonio Damon Gardner on charges of felony murder and robbery in Indian Country.
According to the indictment, Gardner, along with an accomplice, allegedly shot and killed Luster during a robbery that occurred while Luster was attempting to purchase marijuana from them.
Court records from the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma show that a case against Antonio Damon Gardner was filed in December 2020. The charges listed in the court documents include murder, robbery, and firearm-related offenses. The records also indicate the involvement of an unnamed second individual, listed as 'FNU LNU'. Further details on the progression of the court case or the identity and status of the alleged accomplice are not available in the provided online sources.
